Spring Blooms in Maadi

Spring has arrived in Egypt and our suburb, Maadi, is in full bloom. Seth and I have commented more than once on how surprised we are to see so much color around. We had not imagined our time in Egypt would include such rich spring time beauty but the gardeners are out early in the mornings and every hose seems to be gushing before the midday sun reaches its peak. I took these photos during a 45 minute walk around our neighborhood. Feast your eyes on what spring brings to Egypt.

This last photo is not as "spring-like" but I came across this tree in the middle of a road that was being dug up and under construction and it caught my eye.
